    3 weeks, I would have gone crazy lol

    So my title says 20k, GD CS says 20k but the sticker outside says 21k and I have a lippert pinbox 21k not sure if that is standard or a further upgrade that comes with 8k axles

    Wow, they need to get that straightened out, but of course, the sticker on the side of the trailer would be what I would go by. As far as the pinbox, my 2018 Momentum 394 has the 1621 pinbox and it too is rated at 21,000 lbs.....so it sounds like you are good to go if you choose to load it that heavy!

    We just ordered our 2022 Momentum 351M-R and the H-Rated tires are standard. The only way to increase CCC on any of these is the 8K axles, which takes the double axle from 16,800 to 18,800 and the triple axle goes to 21K ccc. The Tires do not add capacity only the axle upgrade does.

    My pin box has a sticker on it stating Max GVW 20,000.

    You will be happy with the H rated tires.

    After having a bunch of suspension issues I have developed the philosophy that more is better. The problem is that there are many roads in poor condition. When you start driving down them your suspension system gets hammered. I love the fact that GD is now offering a heavier suspension system. I spent $6000 on my first 5th wheel and $4000 on this one to get the suspension beefed up. And still has had some failures (spring hangers).

    Safe travels!

    Fantastic news that tires are non-Chinese brand. Would love to hear how they last.

Time will tell how they do.

    I have about 9k on them so far and I am very pleased I keep them about 115 psi, I had the tires balanced and they look almost new, extremely smooth wear no cupping no flat spots. I feel that these were well worth the price.
